A South Florida man is facing a manslaughter charge after confessing to killing his wife 30 years ago. ?????????
????
83-year-old James O'Neil was arrested Thursday after revealing to his daughter back in October that her mother did not commit suicide. O'Neil actually pulled the trigger. ?????????
????
In July of 1987, O'Neil told authorities that he and his wife, Verna O'Neil, had an argument that led to Verna grabbing a gun and saying, "I'm just going to kill myself."
?????????
????
O'Neil then claimed that Verna pointed the gun at her head, and when he tried to grab it from her, the gun accidentally fired. ?????????
????
Though a medical examiner ruled the cause of death as "undetermined," O'Neil's daughter did not believe her father's story. ?????????
????
O'Neil told his daughter, Sharon McGee, about what really happened that night. In February, she told deputies about her father's dark secret. ?????????
????
When authorities met with O'Neil and his current wife in April, O'Neil admitted to lying about the incident, out of fear of getting in trouble.
According to the report, O'Neil said the whole incident was an accident.
